What do reviewers say about Etoile de Saba and Un Bois Vanille?
Tuberose tends to scare people off. Too heady, too much skank. Etoile de Saba plays it different, pure white floral lift without the weight. This is the version that converts the non-believers.Etoile de Saba
Beeswax and black licorice are the tell. If those notes make you nervous, look elsewhere. This isn't vanilla as decoration. It's vanilla as fact, present and undeniable from opening to drydown.Un Bois Vanille
